Hockey: UNB's Hunter Tremblay signs with Edmonton Oilers

Just days after winning his second University Cup as a Varsity Red, UNB's career points leader and 2010 CIS male hockey player of the year Hunter Tremblayhas signed a one-year two-way contract with the Edmonton Oilers, one of several teams that had scouts watching Tremblay (and other players) at last week's Nationals in Fredericton.

Tremblay, from Timmins, ON, is a fourth year Business Administration student expected to graduate this spring. There is no word yet when he will play for the banged-up Oilers, and when he does start his pro career it will most likely be with their AHL team, the Oklahoma City Barons.

Update:8:20 am April 1 - Tremblay has been asked to report as soon as possible to Oklahoma to finish out their season in the AHL.
